I hope they will give us a tabard that requires 2.2 rating or something like that

[crazieh]

Cool change, but they should add an achievment for 1550, 1750 and so on for each SEASON so people constantly have something to aim for. But yeah it's great that there isn't going to be this huge monster gap in gear anymore, also allows me to play my alts more and dual spec without spending my life capping every week

Good change overall!

Not only that but they should also give rewards/titles etc to keep casual people more interested in pvp, they don't have to pvp but make them want to pvp, reward them slightly for taking the time to get 1550 rating or 1750 rating.

making 3v3 and RBG cap the same on top of these changes would be amazing.

looking forwards to next season

[wtfbro]

does this mean no more boosters? HUEHUEHUEHUEHUE

[Caribou]

Would like to see a tabard of something cosmetic, it seems like the only incentive they're giving to do arena is Gladiator titles.

Atleast keep the damn 2200req to get elite Vanity items (remove t2 wep)

its going to look retarded to see someone with elite gear that is backpaddling and turning with A & D keys. also what does elite gear have with 2200sub players having problem to achieve 2200? well thats a challenge then? i can understand the weapon is insanly good, but remove it then? or well... it was to keep up with heroic pve weapons once in a time wasnt it?

You realise that the majority of elite geared people do that ye? Elite gear is nothing special, only people that are too sad and cant achieve anything but Duelist/elite gear care because they feel like their greatest achievement is being taken away.

Ps: They should really add new 2350(maybe higher considering how easy it is to go to that rating... well, maybe not easy, but easier than it was in wotlk).

Oh and they should get "The Flawless Victor" back in the game and tie it to 3s only, would be sweet as phuq.

This. they have new acheivement tab for each new raiding tier that's released, why can't they make one for every season?

100% agree with the OP. The people commenting in favor of this change know about as much on competition, the WoW community as a whole, and economics as they do fornicating with women. Honestly, try to open your minds outside of your small arena box.

Check out the YouTube:

Check out the YouTube:

you are so obviously beyond butt hurt its ridiculous.  and the reality is actually the exact opposite of what you said.  People who are actually good at this game want the game to be a more even playing field, not further apart.  But i wouldn't expect someone who buys gladiator to understand that.

[flannelsoff]

considering every retard has 2.2 in rbgs, especially with all the free points from wintrading teams, this change is fine. Less carries too

[Bula]

this bailamos guy seems like a butthurt moron, this change is only good for the game long term.  it's not the only change needed but it's a good first step in the right direction.

Ya because queues are so booming right now.


The change is good.  It will promote more play from people on alts and stuff because catching up won't be impossible.

[hertzuk]

Probably one of the only changes blizzard have made in the pvp system in the 6 years I've played wow that has actually been good.

And it is really, really good.


Edit: Holy shit at the amount of try hards on the battle.net announcement comments bit complaining that this is a bad change because now noobs have gear... This change is good for casuals and decent players alike.

Gear is just an object in pvp, a means to an end. It is not a reward as such. The reward is rating, analogous to the reward in pve being progression, not the items.

Comparing it to 'getting handed heroic pve gear from normal content' is funny, because really that's what happens. You do normal content enough times to get the gear to do good enough dps (skill aside) to kill heroic bosses.

I will reiterate, best change ever. Though they should maybe add something for the lower brackets to compete for I guess, mounts/tabards after x wins per season, achievements per season. For the top players there's always gladiator/r1 to compete for. For the people stuck between playing for fun but still wanting something to show for it, well at least they can compete now, but maybe give them a little more incentive if they really want it!
